This just proves that the US travel advisories are a **load of crap**!!!! It's strictly political. I wouldn't be surprised if they did this because The Bahamas gave them restrictions. Trump and his minions need a life.<br/><br/>
Let's see **USA... over 5 million** cases. The **Bahamas... over 700** cases. <br/>
**USA... over 160 thousand deaths**. The **Bahamas... 14 deaths**.
<br/><br/>
Anyone see something wrong with this picture?? Anyone, anyone, Bueller? SMH

Agreed ThisisOurs. NIB will not determine if they close or not. If the losses are so great and they feel they can't recoup, the business will close permanently or may not reopen until next year. Many businesses already closed during the first 24 hour cufew... big and small.

I agree with you. Before this silly 24-hour curfew... they had the 10 pm curfew (before the borders were open to the US). When the 10pm curfew was in place... the virus was not spreading rapidly, even with limited testing. All businesses were allowed to open until 8 pm. and the virus was under control. <br/><br/>
So they know what caused the dramatic increase... so stop only that and see the impact. Why you have to stop commercial travel... and all these other things... when it was only **commercial travel to and from the USA** that caused this??? SMH

Yes, glad he recovered. That is exactly why the virus spreads so easily... because many people will have even milder symptoms or none at all and be around others without masks or socially distancing themselves and pass it on unknowingly.

Yes condolences indeed. So, this elderly man was a Bahamian then? More details are needed for this story.

Blah... blah... now **every** situation will be an **urgent circumstance**. The government has already convinced me that they don't care about the plight of Bahamians. Now apparently, all Bahamians are dumb and don't have any specialized skills. <br/><br/>
I guess that's why so many go away to work when they are rejected by their own country. It's okay, keep hiring foreigners, give the contracts to foreigners, give the land away. <br/>
Y'all are right on point with the book - "How to destroy a country for Dummies". Keep it up!! SMH

This government mix up like conch salad. Nope, I take that back... cause that's giving conch salad a bad rap...<br/>
They waayyy more mixed up than that!!!! SMH

Unfortunately, the weather channel is now saying Isaias will likely pass us as a **category 2** hurricane - so they need to update the image above.<br/>
Trust me, no one wants that.<br/><br/>

PS - If it's anticipated that the storm will be here early Saturday morning (unless it slows down further), how can food stores be open??? Everyone also needs to be indoors Friday night. Has Covid caused the government to forget how to prepare for a storm?

Yes, postponing this year's parades will probably be for the best.

tribanon - looks like someone is going to start a #DogLivesMatter movement. ROFL.
Police should be held accountable in all circumstances. But I do understand what you are trying to say tribanon.
